Quaker Quicks – That Clear and Certain Sound by Pamela Haines
That Clear and Certain Sound  is a collection of meditations on being alive in these wonderful and perilous times that encourages us to stay alert to the sound of truth even in the most unlikely places. To reach for solid ground in all aspects of our lives, and to stretch from there toward lives of greater connection and integrity.

Written in the true spirit of the wounded healer, The Winds of Homecoming draws from and is enriched by the poetry and writings of Rainer Maria Rilke. These fifty short meditative reflections offer you hope and inspiration to embrace your loss and loneliness, transforming what is limiting and restrictive into something freeing and infinitely expansive.
